If you have the OR package, then you already have the 285/70/17 tires which are a 33" tire. You don't bother with mileage when towing....it's not going to be good anyhow. You can change tire size and/or gearing but at the expense of towing ability. A 23 footer shouldn't be bad though. I get between 7 and 10 MPG with my 32+ footer.
